6. Control compartments, burners and air passages in this
replace should be kept clean and free of dust and lint.
Make sure that the gas valve and pilot light are turned off
before you attempt to clean this replace.
7. The venting system (chimney) of this replace should be
checked at least once a year and if needed your venting
system should be cleaned.
8. Keep the area around your replace clear of combustible
materials, gasoline and other ammable vapour and liquids. This replace should not be used as a drying rack for
clothing, nor should Christmas stockings or decorations
be hung on or around the replace.
9. Under no circumstances should any solid fuels (wood,

10002555/0
This appliance has been approved for
after-market mobile home installations
IMPORTANT:
PLEASE REVIEW THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY
Remove any plastic from trim parts before turning the replace ON.
It is normal for replaces fabricated of steel to give off
some expansion and/or contraction noises during the start
up or cool down cycle. Similar noises are found with your
furnace heat exchanger or car engine.
It is not unusual for your Majestic gas replace to give
off some odour the rst time it is burned. This is due to
the curing of the paint and any undetected oil from the
manufacturing process.
Please ensure that your room is well ventilated - open all
windows.
It is recommended that you burn your Majestic replace for
a least six (6) hours the rst time you use it. If the optional
fan kit has been installed, place the fan switch in the “OFF”
position during this time.

MANTELS
The height that a combustible mantel is tted above the replace is dependent on the depth of the mantel. This also applies
to the distance between the mantel leg (if tted) and the
replace.
For the correct mounting height and widths refer to Fig. 2 and
the following Mantel Charts.
The tting of a bay window trim kit does not effect the
distances and reference points referred to in the diagram and
chart.
Non-combustible mantels and legs may be installed at any
height and width around the appliance.
When using paint or lacquer to nish the mantel, such paint or
lacquer must be heat resistant to prevent discolouration.

GAS LINE INSTALLATION
REMOTE ON/OFF SWITCH
Installation
When purging the gas lines, the front glass must
be removed.
1.
The gas pipeline can be brought in through the
rear of the replace as well as the bottom. Knockouts are
provided on the bottom behind the valve to allow for the gas
pipe installation and testing of any gas connection. It is most
convenient to bring the gas line in from the rear right side
of the valve as this allows fan installation or removal without
disconnecting the gas line.
The gas line connection can be made with properly tinned
3/8” copper tubing, 3/8” rigid pipe or an approved ex connector. Since some municipalities have some additional local
codes it is always best to consult your local authority and the
CAN/CGA-B149 (.1 or .2) installation codes.
2.
3.
Thread the wiring through the holes on the end panels of
the appliance. Take care not to cut the wire or insulation
on metal edges. Route the wire to a conveniently located
receptacle box.
Attach the wire to the ON/OFF switch and install the
switch into the receptacle box.
Connect the other ends of the wire to the gas control valve
as shown in Fig. 6.

Alternative Switch Location
The remote switch can be installed on the front/side of the
access door. Simply mount the switch to the bracket provided
and screw the bracket to either side of the frame, lining up the
screws with the pre-punched holes, Fig. 7.
For U.S.A. Installations consult the current National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1
Always check for gas leaks with a mild soap and
water solution. Do not use an open ame for
leak testing.
The gas control is equipped with a captured screw type pressure test point, therefore it is not necessary to provide a 1/8”
test point up stream of the control.
When using copper or ex connectors use only approved ttings. Always provide a union when using black iron pipe
so that the gas line can be easily disconnected for burner or
fan servicing. See the gas specication for pressure details
and ratings.
The replace valve must not be subjected to any test pressures
exceeding 1/2 p.s.i.. Isolate or disconnect this and any other
gas appliance control from the gas line when pressure testing.
Fig. 7
Do not wire the remote ON/OFF wall switch for
the gas replace to the 120 volt power supply.

this model to allow for the easy connection of an optional
fan kit.
To connect the EB-1 box to the house electrical supply follow
the steps below.
1. Unscrew the retaining screw from the EB-1 base plate,
Fig. 8 and remove the EB-1 assembly from the appliance.
2. Remove the front cover of the EB-1 box.
3. Remove the plug socket assembly from the EB-1 box.
4. Feed the supply line in through the EB-1 opening in the
side of the appliance and then through the back of the
EB-1 assembly, Fig 8.
5. Connect the black wire of the power supply line to the
brass screw (polarized) of the socket assembly.
6. Connect the white wire of the power line to the chrome
screw of the socket assembly.
7. Connect the ground wire of the supply line to the green
screw of the socket assembly.
8. Ret the socket assembly back into the electrical box and
replace the cover plate. Secure the cable with the clamp
on the outside of the EB-1 base plate and ret the EB-1

Do not locate termination hood where excessive snow or ice
build up may occur. Be sure to check vent termination area
after snow falls, and clear to prevent accidental blockage of
venting system. When using snow blowers, make sure snow is
not directed towards vent termination area.
Your replace is approved to be vented either through the side
wall, or vertically through the roof.
– Only venting components specically approved and
labelled for this replace may be used.
– Minimum clearances between vent pipes and combustible materials is one (1") inch (25 mm).
– Venting terminals shall not be recessed into a wall or
siding.
– Horizontal venting must be installed on a level plane
without any incline or decline.
There must not be any obstruction such as bushes, garden sheds,
fences, decks or utility buildings within 24" from the front of the
termination hood.
Location of Vent Termination
It is imperative that the vent termination be located observing
the minimum clearances as shown on this page.

HOW TO USE THE VENT GRAPH
GENERAL INFORMATION ON
ASSEMBLING DV COMPONENTS
The vent chart should be read in conjunction with the following vent installation instructions to determin the relationship of
the vertical and horizontal dimensions of the vent system
1. Determine the height of the centre of the horizontal vent
pipe exiting through the outer wall. Using this dimension
on the Sidewall Vent Graph below, locate the point it
intersects with the slanted graph line.
2. From the point of this intersection, draw a vertical line to
the bottom of the graph.
3. Select the indicated dimension, and position the replace
in accordance with same.
EXAMPLE A:
If the vertical dimension from the oor of the re
place is 11' (3.4 m) the horizontal run to the face of
the outer wall must not exceed 14' (4.3 m).
EXAMPLE B:
If the vertical dimension from the oor of the re
place is 7' (214cm), the horizontal run to the face of
the outer wall must not exceed 8-1/2' (2.6 m).
Crimped End Pipes
Before joining elbows and pipes apply a bead of high temperature sealant to the crimped end of the elbow or pipe.
Join the pipes using a 2" (50 mm) overlap and secure the
joints with three sheet metal screws, Fig. 18. Wipe off excess
sealant.
CANADIAN INSTALLATIONS:
The venting system must be installed in accordance with the
current CAN/CGA-B149 (.1 or .2) installation code.
U.S.A. INSTALLATIONS:
The venting system must conform to local codes and/or the
current National Fuel Code ANSI Z223.1.
Only venting components manufactured by Vermont Castings,
Majestics Products can be used in Direct Vent systems.

When using Vermont Castings, Majestic Products Twist Lock
pipe it is not necessary to use sealant on the joints.
The only areas of the venting system that need to be sealed
with high temperature silicone sealant are the collars on the
replace and termination, and the sliding joint of any telescopic vent section used in the system.
To join the twist lock pipes together, simply align the beads of
the male end with the grooves of the female end, then while
bringing the pipes together, twist the pipe until the ange on
the female end contacts the external ange on the male end.
It is recommended that you secure the joints with three sheet
metal screws however this is not mandatory with twist lock
pipe.
To make it easier to assemble the joints we suggest putting a
lubricant (Vaseline or similar) on the male end of the twist lock
pipe prior to assembly.

VERTICAL SIDEWALL APPLICATIONS
•
Since it is very important that the venting system
maintain its balance between the combustion air
intake and the ue gas exhaust, certain limitations as to vent congurations apply and must
be strictly adhered to.
The Vent Graph showing the relationship between vertical and
horizontal side wall venting will help to determine the various
dimensions allowable.
If a 90º elbow is used in the horizontal vent run (level
height maintained) the maximum horizontal vent length is
reduced by 36" (914 mm), (Fig. 22). This does not apply
if the 90º elbows are used to increase or redirect a vertical
rise (Fig. 23).
Example: According to the chart the maximum horizontal
vent length in a system with a 7.5' vertical rise is 20' (6 m)
and if a 90º elbow is required in the horizontal vent it must
be reduced to 17' (5.2 m).
In Fig. 22 Dimension A plus B must not be greater than
17' (5.2 m).
Minimum clearance between vent pipes and
combustible materials is one 1"(25mm) on top,
bottom and sides unless otherwise noted.
When vent termination exits through foundations less than 20"
below siding outcrop, the vent pipe must ush up with the
siding.
It is always best to locate the replace in such a way that
minimizes the number of offsets and horizontal vent length.
The horizontal vent run refers to the total length of vent pipe
from the ue collar of the replace to the face of the outer
wall.
Horizontal plane means no vertical rise exists on this portion
of the vent assembly.
• The maximum number of 90º elbows per side wall installation is three (3).

If a 90º elbow is tted directly onto the replace ange the
maximum horizontal vent run before the termination or a
vertical rise is 36" (914 mm).
The maximum number of 45º elbows permitted per side
wall installation is two (2). These elbows can be installed
in either the vertical or horizontal run.
For each 45º elbow installed in the horizontal run, the
length of the horizontal run MUST be reduced by 18"
(45cm). This does not apply if the 45º elbows are
installed on the vertical part of the vent system.
The maximum number of elbow degrees in a system is

VERTICAL SIDEWALL INSTALLATIONS
STEP 1
Locate vent opening on the wall. It may be necessary to
rst position the replace and measure to obtain hole location.
Depending on whether the wall is combustible or non-combustible, cut opening to size. (Fig. 24)
(For combustible walls rst frame in opening. Fig. 24).

STEP 4
Apply a bead of silicone to the inner and outer ue collars of
the replace and using three (3) screws attach an appropriate
length of vent to the replace. Follow with the installation of
the inner and outer elbow, again secure joints as described in
the section 'Joining DV Components'.
Vent Opening —
Noncombustible Wall
7-1/2"

STEP 5
Measure the horizontal length requirement including a 2" (50
mm) overlap, i.e. from the elbow to the outside wall face plus
2" (50 mm)(or the distance required if installing a second 90º
elbow. (Fig. 27).
COMBUSTIBLE WALLS : Cut a 9-3/8"H x 9-3/8"W (240
mm x 240 mm) hole through the exterior wall and frame as
shown (Fig. 24).
NON-COMBUSTIBLE WALLS : Hole opening must be
7.5" (190 mm) in diameter.
Always install horizontal venting on a level plane.
STEP 2
Measure wall thickness and cut zero clearance sleeve parts to
proper length (MAXIMUM 12” / 305 mm). Assemble sleeve
and attach to restop with #8 sheet metal screws (supplied).
Install restop assembly (Fig. 25).

STEP 6
Use appropriate length of pipe sections - telescopic or xed and install the horizontal vent sections. The sections which go
through the wall are packaged with the starter kit, and can be
cut to suit if necessary. (Fig. 28).
Sealing vent pipe and restop gaps with high temperature
sealant will restrict cold air being drawn in around replace.
Fig. 29
Support horizontal pipes every 3 feet (91 cm)
with metal pipe straps.
Check replace to make sure it is levelled and
properly positioned.
BELOW GRADE INSTALLATIONS
When it is not possible to meet the required vent terminal
clearances of 12" (305mm) above grade level a snorkel vent
kit is recommended. It allows installation depth of down to
7 " (178mm) below grade level. The 7" is measured from
the centre of the horizontal vent pipe as it penetrates through
the wall.
Fig. 28
If venting system is installed below ground, we recommend a
window well with adequate and proper drainage.
STEP 7
Apply high temperature sealant to 4" (100 mm) and 7" (175
mm) collars or the termination one inch away from crimped
end. Guide the vent terminations 4" and 7" collars into their
respective vent pipes. Double check that the vent pipes overlap the collars by 2" (50 mm). Secure the termination to the
wall with screws provided and caulk around the wall plate
to weatherproof, Fig. 29. As an alternative to screwing the
termination directly to the wall you may also use expanding
plugs or an approved exterior construction adhesive. You may
also attach the termination with screws through the inner body
into the 4" vent pipe however for this method you must extend
the 4" pipe approximately 6" (150 mm) beyond the outer face
of the wall.
33/36/39/43 BDVT
Ensure sidewall venting clearances are observed.
If installing a snorkel a minimum 24" vertical rise is necessary.
The maximum horizontal run with the 24" vertical pipe is 36"
(915mm). This measurement is taken from the collar of the
replace (or transition elbow) to the face of the exterior wall.
See the Sidewall Vent Graph for extended horizontal run if the
vertical rise exceeds 24".
1. Establish vent hole through the wall (Fig. 24).
2. Remove soil to a depth of approximately 16" below base
of snorkel. Install drain pipe. Install window well (not
supplied). Rell hole with 12" of coarse gravel leaving a
clearance of approximately 4" below snorkel. (Fig. 30)
3. Install vent system.
4. Ensure a watertight seal is made around the vent pipe
coming through the wall.
5. Apply high temperature sealant caulking (supplied)
around the 4" and 7" snorkel collars.
6. Slide the snorkel into the vent pipes and secure to the
wall.
7. Level the soil so as to maintain a 4" clearance below
snorkel. (Fig. 30)

GLASS CLEANING
LOUVRE REMOVAL
It is necessary to periodically clean the glass.
During start-up condensation, which is normal, forms on the
inside of the glass. This condensation causes lint, dust and
other airborne particles to cling to the glass surface.
Also initial paint curing may deposit a slight lm on the glass.
It is therefore recommended that the glass be cleaned two or
three times with a non-ammonia based household cleaner and
warm water (we recommend gas replace glass cleaner) within
the rst few weeks of operation.
After this initial cleaning process the glass should be cleaned
two or three times during each operating season depending on
the environment in the house.
The top louvre panel is removed by lifting the panel vertically
and pulling it away from the appliance, Fig. 41.

TROUBLE SHOOTING THE GAS CONTROL SYSTEM
SIT NOVA 820 MILLIVOLT VALVE
Note: Before trouble shooting the gas control system, be sure external gas shut off is in the "On" position.
WARNING: BEFORE DOING ANY GAS CONTROL SERVICE WORK, REMOVE GLASS FRONT.
SYMPTOM
1. Spark ignitor will not light
POSSIBLE CAUSES
A. Defective or misaligned
electrode at pilot.
Using a match, light pilot. If pilot lights, turn off pilot and
push the red button again. If pilot will not light - check gap
at electrode and pilot-should be 1/8" to have a strong spark.
B. Defective ignitor (Push Button)
Push Piezo Ignitor Button. Check for spark at electrode and
pilot. If no spark to pilot, and electrode wire is properly
connected, replace ignitor.
2. Pilot will not stay lit after
A. Defective pilot generator
carefully following lighting
(thermocouple), remote wall
instructions.
switch.
3. Pilot burning, no gas to
main burner
CORRECTIVE ACTION
1. Check pilot ame. Must impinge on thermocouple/
thermopile. Note: this pilot burner assembly utilizes botha thermocouple and a thermopile. The thermocouple
operates the main valve operation (On and Off). Clean
and or adjust pilot for maximum ame impingement on
thermopile and thermocouple.
B. Defective automatic valve
Turn valve knob to "Pilot". Maintain ow to pilot; mil
liv olt meter should read greater than 10 mV. If the reading
is okay and the pilot does not stay on, replace the gas
valve. Note: An interrupter block (not supplied) must be
used to conduct this test.
A. Wall switch or wires defective
Check wall switch and wires for proper connections.
Jumper wire across terminals at wall switch, if burner
comes on, replace defective wall switch. If okay, jumper
wires across wall switch wires at valve, if burner comes
on, wires are faulty or connections are bad.
B. Thermopile may not be
generating sufcient
millivoltage.
1. Be sure wire connections from thermopile at gas valve
terminals are tight and thermopile is fully inserted into pilot
bracket.
2. One of the wall switch wires may be grounded. Remove
wall switch wires from valve terminals if pilot now stays
lit, trace wall switch wiring for ground. May be grounded
to replace or gas supply.
3. Check thermopile with millivolt meter. Take reading at
thermopile terminals of gas valve. Should read 250-300
millivolts (minimum 150) while holding valve knob depressed in pilot position and wall switch "Off". Replace
faulty thermopile if reading is below specied minimum
C. Plugged burner orice.
4. Frequent pilot outage
problem.
33/36/39/43 BDVT
Check burner orices for debris and remove.
D. Defective automatic valve
operator.
Turn valve knob to "On", place wall switch to "On" millivolt
meter should read greater than 100 mV. If the reading is
okay and the burner does not come on, replace the gas
valve.
A. Pilot ame may be too low
or blowing (high) causing the
pilot safety to drop out.
Clean and/or adjust pilot ame for maximum ame
impingement on thermopile and thermocouple.
B. Possible blockage of the vent
terminal.
Check the vent terminal for blockage (recycling the ue gases)
